A Couple of Hands with Constantine
Constantine Harach made it 900 from under the gun to see the action folded round to Jackson Zheng in the big blind.
"Respect!" announced Zheng as he tabled his to relinquish the pot to Harach.
"Did you have me beat?" asked Zheng jokingly.
Not responding, Harach pumped it to 1,900 the next hand after a raise to 750 and a call from Zheng from out of the small blind.
The original raiser folded, but Zheng made the call as the flop was greeted with a 2,600-chip bet from Harach.
Zheng deliberated for a few moments before making it 5,600 to go as Harach quickly made the call before the rolled off on the turn.
Zheng checked and Harach fired out 6,000 to prompt a muck from Zheng as he slipped to 30,600.
"Show me a deuce" pleaded Zheng.
"Nearly put it all in on the flop!" responded Harach before continuing, "Nearly, nearly!" as he climbed to 29,000 in chips.
